Q:

If I Can Only Return to Work Part Time After My Georgia Car Accident, Can I Recover Damages for My Partial Loss of Income?

A:

Yes, if your Georgia car accident injuries prevent you from returning to work full time, then you may be able to recover damages for the difference between your full time income and part time income. However, in order to recover these damages for partial loss income you will need to prove that your accident injuries prevented you from returning to work full time.

To prove that your accident injuries are the cause of your reduction in income you will likely need a doctor’s note that explains why you are unable to return to your old position. You will also need an experienced Alpharetta and Atlanta car accident attorney who can analyze the evidence in your case, negotiate with the insurance company, and take your case to trial, if necessary.
